ch34p5hot Posted December 26, 2005 CID Share Posted December 26, 2005 I used CableNut and now when i reboot my computer an error message pops up saying: Norton AntiVirus 2005 does not support the repair feature, please uninstall and reinstall. If Anybody knows what i should do about this problem please help. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resopalrabotnick Posted December 26, 2005 CID Share Posted December 26, 2005 off the top of my noggin i'd say norton is trying to fix the registry settings cablenut tweaked. try running cablenut, saving the settings tyou made (if they were faster than before) to a file. then remove cablenut settings and save to registry (go back to the win defaults). when you reboot norton might not act up because when it compares the registry to the image it took of it (i am inferring that norton made a note of the registry and detected changes and wants to revert them but is running into some problem doing so). if that is the case, turn off the registry monitoring for norton, run cablenut and load the saved file and save it, then reboot. now reactivate the norton registry protection (if that is what it was) and see if it accepts the changed registry as the new standard. (having something monitor the registry is not a bad idea since it can catch malware trying to write itself in). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanBuren Posted December 27, 2005 CID Share Posted December 27, 2005 im 99% sure its not a CableNut/Norton issue, my guess you got some other problem in your registry i been using Norton/cablenut without any trouble from 2001 to 2005 when i bought a router NIS 2005 and my router didnt mix, slowdowns and testmy.net mainserver gave me cached results VanBuren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trogers Posted February 18, 2006 CID Share Posted February 18, 2006 Yes Norton and Mcafee are preferred by top COMPANIES with server computers of high speed and capacities. But you and I with our humble desktops and laptops cannot spare the RAM or Mhz to accommodate these guzzling softwares. We need sleek and fast solutions.
